Ruslan Boshirov, suspected of poisoning Sergei and Yulia Skripal, may be involved in the murder of Chechen militants field commander Abdulvakhid Edelgiriyev.

Turkish journalists noted the resemblance of the GRU colonel Anatoly Chepiga with Andrey Sholkhov, who could have participated in the operation to eliminate the field commander of Chechen militants in Istanbul, Abdulvahid Edelgiriyev. Sholkhov’s face was caught on a city surveillance camera, Haber Turk writes.

Edelgiriyev was killed in 2015 in the capital of Turkey. It is assumed that he is responsible for the attacks in the Moscow metro and Domodedovo Airport, and also fought in Syria on the side of the IS (a terrorist organization banned in the Russian Federation).

Earlier, the CrimeRussia wrote that journalist Sergey Kanev announced Chepiga’s participation in the operation of extracting former Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovich from his residence to the Crimea in 2014. The photo of the intelligence agent hangs on the Hall of Fame of the Far Eastern Higher All-Arms Command School (DVOKU). It very much resembles the face of Ruslan Boshirov, whom Great Britain considers to be the poisoner of Sergey Skripal.
